TV Shows Donating PPE to Hospitals

Television shows about fictional hospitals and doctors have gained popularity over the years. Many medical dramas have a huge fandom, and the shows have even inspired viewers to become medical professionals themselves. The props team from many of these shows are donating their supply of personal protective equipment (PPE) to hospitals in an effort to replenish their dwindling supplies. 

Some of the shows to help with donations thus far include:

Healthcare workers worry that the US does not have an adequate amount of stockpiled PPE like face masks, gloves, and gowns. We can all help do our part by donating PPE items to fulfill the anticipated need of our healthcare system. Check your attic or  basement, your emergency kit, toolkit, or your workbench for N95 masks or surgical masks. Disposable booties, safety goggles, and disposable suits are also in short supply. If you have these things or know someone who might (HVAC installers, construction workers, etc.) please share this site with them to encourage local donations to medical workers on the frontlines.

For those of us who are non-essential workers and on a WFH schedule, please continue to DO YOUR PART and stay home so that those on the frontlines can do their part! As an homage to the medical drama genre, here are a few other links of TV shows to watch while you are social distancing.

"Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." . To the entire team @theresidentonfox, thank you for this incredibly generous donation of #PPE from your set, including gowns, masks, gloves, and all the things our healthcare workers need to provide safe care for our community during #COVID19. . Yesterday, I had a serious discussion with the residents about how, though supplies are low, a magical shipment of masks is unlikely to arrive. And yet, a magical shipment of masks DID arrive, in the form of this very generous gesture. This kind of community support means so much to our #frontlineproviders who are making many sacrifices to staff our hospitals and care for our community. . Thank you, @theresidentonfox and @foxtv for being helpers. We needed this kind of good news today. . PS: Sorry it's not a great pic, but the focus was not on the photo at the time. Similarly, the team @theresidentonfox are good citizens doing good deeds and not looking for a shout out. Though I encourage all to support The Resident and the great team behind the show and to pay their good deed forward any way you can. . #Hurstlife #residentlife #emoryIMresidents #lookforthehelpers #gratitude

FAQ’s

At this point it is not a question of “if” but rather a question of “when” it will hit your community. In the abundance of caution, limit your contact with others by social distancing and leaving your home only for absolute essentials, like food, medicine, or fresh air. If delivery or pick-up services are possible in your area, utilize that in order to limit your physical contact with others. If you must come in contact with others, maintain a safe distance of at least six feet during this time.

In order to prevent coronavirus from spreading, one must limit physical contact with others in an effort known as social distancing. Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines “social distancing” as the practice of maintaining a greater than usual physical distance from other people. This includes avoiding direct contact with people or objects in public places during the outbreak of a contagious disease in order to minimize exposure and reduce the transmission of infection.

According to the CDC, symptoms of COVID-19 may appear up to 14 days after exposure and can include:

  • Fever
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
  • Aches
  • Runny nose
  • Sore throat

According to the guidelines from the CDC, if you develop symptoms of COVID-19, please contact your local healthcare provider for more details about testing sites in your area. In the coming weeks, drive-up testing locations will begin to open at CVS, Walgreens, Walmart and Target stores around the US.
